    Interestingly Enough...: The Life of Tom Keneally , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 970min
    The breadth and richness of Keneally's life is explored in this comprehensive biography, authorised by the subject and written by Stephany Evans Steggall. For five decades Tom Keneally has been one of Australia's finest and most loved writers. Celebrated across the world as a master storyteller and known especially for the Booker Prize-winning Schindler's Ark, he is also respected for his humanitarian work and his commitment to causes such as republicanism. But beneath Keneally's warm and garrulous exterior is a complex man intermittently troubled by depression and anxiety. The prolific writer and popular raconteur has known many 'dark nights of the soul'. His commitment to Catholicism once led him to train for the priesthood, but crippling doubt left him unable to fulfil that ambition. Instead he became a haunted writer - and then an uninhibited storyteller. Keneally's remarkable career has seen him win literary acclaim and commercial success across the world. His works are frequent and diverse, ranging from much-loved novels (Bring Larks and Heroes, Confederates) and memoirs (Homebush Boy, Searching for Schindler) to respected works of history (The Great Shame, Three Famines). A number of his novels have also been made into award-winning films (The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith, Schindler's List). The story of Keneally's life and work is brilliantly told in this engaging and accessible new biography by Stephany Evans Steggall. The result of exhaustive research and unique opportunities to interview Keneally himself, Interestingly Enough... is the definitive account of an extraordinary Australian. ungekürzt.

    Tune In: The Beatles: All These Years , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 2623min
    Tune In is the first volume of All These Years - a highly-anticipated, groundbreaking biographical trilogy by the world's leading Beatles historian. Mark Lewisohn uses his unprecedented archival access and hundreds of new interviews to construct the full story of the lives and work of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Ten years in the making, Tune In takes the Beatles from before their childhoods through the final hour of 1962 - when, with breakthrough success just days away, they stand on the cusp of a whole new kind of fame and celebrity. They've one hit record ("Love Me Do") behind them and the next ("Please Please Me") primed for release, their first album session is booked, and America is clear on the horizon. This is the lesser-known Beatles story - the pre-Fab years of Liverpool and Hamburg - and in many respects the most absorbing and incredible period of them all. Here is the complete and true account of their family lives, childhoods, teenage years, and their infatuation with American music; here is the riveting narrative of their unforgettable days and nights in the Cavern Club, their laughs, larks, and adventures when they could move about freely, before fame closed in. For those who've never read a Beatles book before, this is the place to discover the young men behind the icons. For those who think they know John, Paul, George, and Ringo, it's time to press the reset button and tune into the real story, the lasting word. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Clive Mantle.

    The Intelligence Paradox: Why the Intelligent Choice Isn't Always the Smart One , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 349min
    A book that challenges common misconceptions about the nature of intelligence. Satoshi Kanazawa's Why Beautiful People Have More Daughters (written with Alan S. Miller) was hailed by the Los Angeles Times as "a rollicking bit of pop Science & Technology that turns the lens of evolutionary psychology on issues of the day." That book answered such burning questions as why women tend to lust after males who already have mates and why newborns look more like Dad than Mom. Now Kanazawa tackles the nature of intelligence: what it is, what it does, what it is good for (if anything). Highly entertaining, smart (dare we say intelligent?), and daringly contrarian, The Intelligence Paradox will provide a deeper understanding of what intelligence is, and what it means for us in our lives. Asks why more intelligent individuals are not better (and are, in fact, often worse) than less intelligent individuals in solving some of the most important problems in life - such as finding a mate, raising children, and making friends Discusses why liberals are more intelligent than conservatives, why atheists are more intelligent than the religious, why more intelligent men value monogamy, why night owls are more intelligent than morning larks, and why homosexuals are more intelligent than heterosexuals Explores how the purpose for which general intelligence evolved - solving evolutionarily novel problems - allows us to explain why intelligent people have the particular values and preferences they have Challenging common misconceptions about the nature of intelligence, this book offers surprising insights into the cutting-edge of Science & Technology at the intersection of evolutionary psychology and intelligence research.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt.

    Das Recht des Alphas (eBook, ePUB)
    Declan McIntire, der Alpha des Stone Ridge Rudels, weist seit einem Jahrhundert die hübschen Töchter zurück, die ihm vorgeführt werden, und verbirgt die Tatsache, dass er Männer bevorzugt. Als er bei einer Grillparty des Rudels Lark Trystan wittert, stellt Declan begeistert fest, dass es sich bei dem niedlichen, sexy Menschen um seinen Gefährten handelt. Er ist noch begeisterter, als er herausfindet, dass Lark über Gestaltwandler Bescheid weiß und schon seit einigen Monaten mit ihnen zu tun hat. Schnell erkennt Declan, dass seine riesige Gestalt und dominante Persönlichkeit das eigentliche Problem sind. Da der Alpha hetero ist, versteht Lark nicht, warum Declan sich plötzlich für ihn interessiert. Er versteht auch nicht, warum er sich so zu dem großen Mann hingezogen fühlt, vor allem da er in Beziehungen bisher nie viel Glück hatte. Dominante Männer scheinen immer der Meinung zu sein, dass er sich hervorragend als Prügelknabe eignet, und Lark hat Narben als Erinnerung daran zurückbehalten. Als Lark im Krankenhaus landet, legt Declan alles andere auf Eis, denn er ist entschlossen, seinen Gefährten mit nach Hause zu nehmen und ihm zu beweisen, dass er ganz anders ist als Larks bisherige Liebhaber. Doch nicht alle im Rudel akzeptieren einen schwulen Alpha. Kann Declan einen Weg finden, sie zusammen zu bringen? Oder wird er sich zwischen dem Rudel, dem er sein Leben gewidmet hat, und dem Mann, der schon nach kurzer Zeit sein Herz in Händen hält, entscheiden müssen? Ein homoerotischer Liebesroman für Erwachsene mit explizitem Inhalt. Jeder Band dieser Reihe geht auf die romantische Beziehung eines anderen Paares ein. Um die gesamte Handlung sowie die Geschichte aller Figuren zu erfahren, empfiehlt es sich, alle Bände in der Reihenfolge ihres Erscheinens zu lesen. Länge: Rund 35.600 Wörter
